Hi,
I am planning the installation of an outside tap in my new house.
I have been looking up the subject and the consensus of opinion is that the tap should be installed as a tee of the pipework as close to the rising main as possible. The rising main in the property is under the kitchen sink which is at the front of the property.
Ideally I would like the tap to be installed off the utility room to the side of the property rather that the front by the rising main.
Would the water pressure be significantly different in the utility room (furthest end of kitchen from the sink) where I have a sink and the washing machine plumbed in? The water system in the house is of the "direct" type, i.e. there is no cold water tank in the loft.
Any help and advice would be appreciated
Matthew
